Jman888 Moderator December 18, 2024 Share December 18, 2024 I use samsung smart tags, been using for few years when my kids travel overseas, as long as it is near an samsung phone it will auto update the location. If they travel with friends, will have 2 tags with them, 1 on luggage and 1 with their backpack that they carry out everyday, also provide the timeline history for up to last 7 days. when we travel together, each of us carry one in case we all go shopping separately the tracking location quite accurate, I can see which hotel they stayed in from city to city ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could control his screen time, app time, track his location worldwide etc. but MS cancelled that function. Now I have "iSharing" on my parents' phones since they got physically separated on an overseas holiday last year when dad got on a train and mum didn't make it - there's a panic you never want to witness. With regards phones, I first got my boy a cheap Redmi for going P3, he didn't have anything before h started going to school himself. One thing, it was bought because cheaper and could break/lose but it is important to keep everything in the cloud so it can all be re-installed easily on a replacement. I have an app that records all the apps, wallpaper, layout, files etc. and backed up to the cloud so I can lose one phone, block it, and reinstall fresh on another to duplicate the old one exactly. Expand kids why bother? Zero mission critical thing other than contact list. Seriously, all this stuff never existed when we were young. We just learnt how to reinstall something ourselves. For work purposes, then yeah the settings are a bitch to port over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am using powerline to pipe the traffic to another router which is more centralised. I have 2x 4G routers that were bought, IIRC, around 2019 or before. They were not comissioned for use because the plans at that time had not a lot of data. 🤣 Now, 4G had more data but we are already 5G. 🤣 Also so much so that except fixed computers, am virtually on mobile data at home. 😆 P.S. The other day I was just thinking to bring my soon-to-be-purchase 5G router in the vehicle to make it fully mobile. 🤣 Expand After upgrading to latest v1.2.1 firmware, the deco X50-5G is working well now.
